The Thousand Waterfalls of Tumpak Sewu, or Tumpak Sewu, for short, is one of Java’s most breathtaking natural wonders. There are numerous very slim waterfalls cascading into a deep gorge with lush rainforests that look like the surroundings in an action film.

The panoramic spot offers an amazing view of the waterfall from above, and then there is a short hiking trail that leads to where you enjoy the power of this waterfall. You usually see Tumpak Sewu in combination with other attractions around that include Goa Tetes and Kabut Pelangi, which is an ideal day out from Malang and even Surabaya.

Accessibility is outstanding, the location is photographically pleasing, and the green cliff settings make Tumpak Sewu one of the most unforgettable waterfalls in Indonesia.
